Definitions
- the invention relates to a dental handpiece, with a handle part which contains a motor to which a propellant air line which is flow-controlled by means of an adjusting ring arranged on the handle part leads, and a head part which can be connected to the handle part via a neck part, which carries a rotating tool.
- the drive arranged in the handle part is designed as a pneumatic vane motor, which consists of a sleeve-shaped housing which forms the stator and a rotor arranged therein, the axis of rotation of which runs parallel to the axis of the circular-cylindrical inner wall and is offset with respect to the latter, wherein at least one air inlet opening for compressed air and at least one air outlet opening open into the longitudinal slots of the rotor with their outer ends to the space between the rotor and the circular cylindrical inner wall.
- the motor When the motor is pressurized with compressed air, the latter enters through the air inlet opening (s) into the space between the rotor and the cylindrical inner wall and pushes the closest, most protruding lamella in front of it, so that the rotor begins to rotate and the next lamella is acted upon by the compressed air.
- the speed range of the tool that can be achieved with such a device is between 0 and 40,000 and is referred to in technical terms as the low-speed range.
- the desired speed is set using an adjusting ring, which starts from the zero position can be set to clockwise or counterclockwise rotation at different speeds.
- the invention is based on the object of creating a handle part which can be used as universally as possible. This is achieved according to the invention in that the handle part contains an additional propellant air line which leads to the connection point between the handle part and the neck part and that the propellant air can optionally be introduced into one of the two propellant air lines through the adjusting ring.
- the adjusting device is designed as an adjusting ring and the adjusting ring is connected in a rotationally fixed manner to a sleeve rotatably arranged on the connecting piece. This measure ensures that, under constant operating conditions, the entire area of the handpiece covered by the doctor's hand remains unaffected by twists in the supply hose. Changes in the speed and direction of rotation, however, are easily possible that the adjusting ring is more than sufficiently wide because of its connection to the sleeve comprising the connecting part.
- a particular advantage lies in the fact that the adjusting ring, which is in any case necessary, can, together with this sleeve, also mediate the coupling between the connecting piece and the grip part, which can be implemented constructively, for example, by resilient tongues.
- connection piece ends in a tube which comprises a pin attached to the handle part, it is possible to make the sleeve surrounding the connection piece and the resilient tongues provided thereon as coupling means relatively thin, since they provide support experienced at the connector.
- FIG. 1 shows a vertical longitudinal section through the handle part of a dental handpiece designed according to the invention
- FIG. 2 shows the section through the handpiece from FIG. 1 along the line II-II in FIG. 1
- FIG. 3 shows ad sections 1 corresponding to various positions of the adjusting ring 7
- FIG. 4 shows a section along the line IV-IV in FIG. 1
- FIG. 5 shows a section along the line VV in FIG. 1
- FIG. 6 the side view of the connection end of the handle part 1
- Tool holder with neck part 2 and head part 3 and FIG. 8 the connection area of the handle part 1 with a connecting piece 31.
- the handle part 1 shows the handle part 1 of a dental handpiece, which on the one hand (on the right in the drawing) can be connected to a connector for supply lines for propellant air, cooling water, cooling air, etc., and on the other hand can be connected to an exchangeable tool holder.
- the handle part 1 contains a motor 5, which can drive the drive shaft which runs in the usual way through the neck part of a tool holder via a gear 26.
- This motor 5 is preferably a vane motor of the type shown in FIG. 5, in which a rotor rotating on a central axis in an eccentric bore is equipped with radially displaceable, spring-loaded vanes 25. The direction of rotation of this rotor depends on whether driving air is supplied through the inlet 6 and then discharged at 6 * or whether the air is supplied through the line 6 1 and discharged through the line 6 *.
- a tool can be driven when the motor 5 is at a standstill by driving air being fed through the handle part 1 to a turbine 8 which in the head part 3 consists of a head part 3 and a neck part 2 Tool holder for a tool 4 is arranged (see FIG. 7).
- the turbine 8 is driven in the T position, and the drive takes place in the F and R positions of the motor 5 in opposite directions, the position 0 is the neutral position.
- the function of the adjusting ring 7 can be seen from FIGS. 3 a-d.
- the adjusting ring has, on the one hand, a radial widening 23 extending from a central bore to release the propellant air inlet and, on the other hand, a tangential longitudinal slot 24 for the return air.
- the propellant air reaches the extension 23 of the adjusting ring 7 through the supply line 10 in the connecting piece 21, which widens at the left end to a circular segment-shaped recess 10 'which communicates with the extension 23 of the adjusting ring 7.
- the propellant air can optionally be supplied to the motor 5 via the lines 6 or 6 ′ and returned via the return lines 16, or else via the propellant air line 9 to the turbine 8 - Run back and over the return line 15.
- a cooling water line 17, a cooling air line 18 and a light line 19, which will be discussed later, also run in the handle part 1.
- the common propellant air supply 10 and the recess 10 are also projected onto the sectional plane of FIG. 4, which are located to the right of the sectional plane.
- Fig. 3 ad is shown in detail how the desired selection between the drive types can be made by turning the adjusting ring 7.
- the extension 23 of the adjusting ring releases the motive air line 9.
- the propellant air passes through this line to a recess 13, which opens between the O-rings 11 and 12 of the tool holder shown in FIG. 7, so that the drive air line 9 continues to the turbine 8.
- the return air flows through a line which, in the illustration according to FIG. 7, is covered by the driving air line 9 and which on the front side of the neck part 2 opens to the right of the O-ring 12.
- This 0- ing runs between the recesses 13, 14 when the tool holder is mounted, so that the return air passes into the recess 14 and from there into the line 15, which is released by the longitudinal slot 24 in the position according to FIG. 3a.
- the adjusting ring 7 can be connected to the sleeve 31 via the tongues 33, since corresponding locking elements 41 are provided on the adjusting ring 7 and the tongues 33, which produce a connection between the adjusting ring 7 and the sleeve 31 when the parts 34 and 1 are pushed together axially. This connection is released by pressing in the tongues 33, as indicated by the arrow 42.
- the connecting piece 34 comprises a tube 37, which receives the end pin 21 of the gripping part 1, the sleeve 31 can be relatively thin-walled, since the tube 37 ensures the strength of the connecting piece 34.
- the pin 21 is rotatable in the tube 37, wherein annular grooves on the pin 21 arranged between seals enable the supply media to pass into the handle part 1.
- propellant air flows through the handle part in the manner according to the invention, which air can optionally be directed to the turbine 8 (T) or to the air motor 5 (F-O-R).
- the measure can also be used if the adjusting ring 7 controls an electric motor.
